A/HRC/10/8/Add.1 page 32 this draft law, including the new amendments adopted by the Senate, would impose undue restrictions on freedom of religion or belief of individuals and religious or belief communities in the Republic of Kazakhstan. 118. Allegedly, the draft law would maintain the prohibition of activities of unregistered religious organizations, which existed in the previous law. Whereas the conduct of certain religious activities in violation of the law would previously lead to fines to up to 50 times the minimum monthly wage, the draft law suggests that they now be sanctioned with a fixed fine of 50 times the minimum monthly wage, thereby leaving no margin of appreciation to the judges. It would also introduce new liabilities and quotas on proselytising activities and would impose a ban on missionary activity by people who are not representatives of registered religious organizations. In addition, it would strictly limit the dissemination of religious materials in fixed premises designated by local executive bodies. 119. The proposed draft law also seems to offer the possibility to the authorities to undertake substantial reviews of the registration applications submitted to them. Upon the result of this “theological analysis”, the authorities may put the registration of a religious community on hold for an unspecified delay or even deny registration to a religious or belief community. Furthermore, the draft law would prohibit private religious education at all levels. Fears have been expressed that the draft law contains vague provisions which could lead to the introduction of collective sanctions for actions committed by individuals or which could result in abusive interpretation and discrimination on the part of the law enforcement authorities. Finally, various religious communities have voiced their concern at the lack of public and open debate on the proposed draft law. Response from the Government dated 6 December 2008 120.
